Video Tutorial on 3D Shape Detection with HALCON 13

We have published a new video tutorial that demonstrates how the SP1 can be used
together with HALCON 13 for performing 3D shape detection.

HALCON by MVTec is one of the most widely used software environments for developing
machine vision applications. It features a rich collection of algorithms for
processing 2D images. For many more complex tasks, however, processing 2D image data
is not sufficient. This is why HALCON also provides support for analyzing 3D
data in the form of depth maps and 3D point clouds.

With the newly released version 13, HALCON just extended its support
for 3D image processing. This version also greatly simplifies the integration with
the SP1 stereo vision sensor,
by adding support for a new 3D point cloud pixel format.

To demonstrate how easily the SP1 can now be used with HALCON, we have created
a new video tutorial. This tutorial shows how a cylinder can be detected with HALCON
from the 3D point cloud that is provided by the SP1 and our
Karmin stereo camera.
